Founders launch on @producthunt with one goal: Rank as high as possible, but the first question should be: what is your launch objective?
Maybe your goal is to: Test an idea and see if there s real interest
Get more traffic
Get new users
Increase conversions
Get feedback
Make people try your free plan
Get your first paying customers
Build awareness around your product
Get backlinks ...
Depending on your goal, the way you prepare your launch and how you measure if it was successful can be completely different. For those who launched on Product Hunt: what was your main goal, and did you achieve it?
Because building products has become much more accessible thanks to AI, the bar has had to rise a bit, or at least the expectations have become stricter.
I built my own tool SafeLimit, but personally, I wouldn t launch it on Product Hunt yet because it s still very basic and doesn t even have a website.
